AB441,1,2
1An Act to amend 101.123 (1) (ar) of the statutes;
relating to: prohibiting
2smoking in the vicinity of the state capitol building.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law prohibits smoking in the immediate vicinity of the state capitol
building, as determined by rule of the Department of Administration. Currently, the
immediate vicinity of the state capitol building does not include any area that is more
than one fathom from the state capitol building.
This bill deletes this prohibition and, instead, prohibits smoking within 25 feet
of the state capitol building.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
AB441, s. 1
